About this site

Often am I asked, "christofferson, why did you make this website?"

I hope to give you that answer here and so that in the future I can just point people to this page when they ask me that question again.

I made this site because I wanted a place to put fun little things. I like the appeal of WEB 1.0, it reminds me of the good old days, kind of like myspace. I also want to give this site Big Zine energy.

On that note - some aspects of todays "Internet" can be fucking atrocious. Collection and use of personal data by large tech companies is used for targeted advertising & data mining. Shady people use this data to swing elections via social media, which in my mind is 100% unethical. Authoritarian governments can also force tech companies to provide information on people who break laws - such as women seeking illegal abortion. That is pretty fucked up guys. Not to mention, rampant misinformation online. Note that if there are lies on this site, its only because I'm doing a joke or a bit.

Then there is all this death of the internet shit, AI used everywhere. This is a REAL website run by a REAL human.

I suppose this site (and I figure other personal sites like these) is a CounterCulture to big tech social media. It's not contstained by limits of a social media site, the site wont advertise products, its not got cookies to track you. I'm not getting paid to make this, but it would be pretty cool if I did.

You may notice that if you see a page one day and then the next it is different, its probably because this site is in perpetual construction. I want it to grow and develop it organically. Theres not many mediums where you can do that, and that is pretty wild if you ask me.

You might notice a lot of fun spelling mistakes and grammer errors, these are the happy little trees of writing, and you can probably get the gist of what the word was anyway. language is evolving and it's just made up anyway lol.

About me

I'm a millenial capricorn communist mystic and alchemist. But what even are labels bro?
I'm just some guy who is enjoying making this wonderful site!
I'm currently in the UK and I look like this (but with a body) 🧔🏻

As I've said, this is a personal website and these are my personal thoughts.
I think it is important to hold space and embrace a bit of joy and whimsy in these trying times. It's important to stand up against the dead internet and all the AI slop. It's important to do what others dare not to.
